Products in Aldehydes & Ketones: Resins

Altivia Methyl Isobutyl Ketone (MIBK) is a stable, colorless liquid with a pleasant odor. It is both a medium boiling and medium evaporating solvent commonly used by the industrial paints and coatings industry in the production of traffic paints and automotive coatings, nitrocellulose lacquers, and vinyl-acrylic resins for adhesives. MIBK is also used as an extraction solvent for tall oil soap purification. Methyl Isobutyl Ketone is also referred to as 4-methylpentan-2-one.

Altivia Diisobutyl Ketone (DIBK) is a colorless, stable liquid with a mild sweet odor. DIBK is a high-boiling, slow evaporating solvent that has limited water solubility, but is miscible with alcohols and ketones. DIBK has excellent viscosity reduction for and reduces surface tension in high solid’s coatings. DIBK has good volume-to-weight advantage over other classes of solvents used in coatings. DIBK is a non-HAP (Hazardous Air Pollutant) solvent. Diisobutyl Ketone is also referred to as DIBK; isobutyl ketone; 2,6 dimethyl-4-heptanone; s-diisopropylacetone; isovalerone; valerone.
